CDC was commissioned to support the Contractor, CJ O’Shea Limited, to offer Fire Engineering CFD modelling services to the development. This work related modelling of the large scale basement car parking floors, which were formed as part of an extension to the existing car park area. The basement car park area, implemented a large scale car stacking system in addition to traditional car parking areas.
The CFD modelling was successfully able to demonstrate that a reduction in the number of fans would still achieve the requirements for smoke extraction within the development The CFD modelling was reviewed and approved by both Building Control and Fire Services organisations as part of the approval process.
The development was handed over in 2018.
